MultiSkills Training is excited to announce a new collaboration with Top 100 Women, a prestigious organisation dedicated to empowering and supporting women in various industries. As part of this partnership, we are offering exclusive memberships to our female students, providing them with access to networking opportunities, mentorship programs, and resources to further their careers in the construction industry.

At MultiSkills Training, we are committed to supporting women in construction and breaking down barriers that may prevent them from pursuing a career in this male-dominated field. This collaboration with Top 100 Women is just one of the many ways we are working to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for our female students.

Through this partnership, we hope to inspire and empower women in construction to reach their full potential and achieve their career goals. We believe that by providing them with the right tools and resources, we can help pave the way for a more diverse and inclusive industry.

If you’re a female student of ours with interest to become a member of Top 100 Women, let us know today! We’ll get you signed up.

At MultiSkills training, we are honoured to sponsor and host the Dads in Distress groups at our Geelong site every Monday night for free, confidential, and non-judgemental support.

These weekly gatherings offer a lifeline to fathers navigating the challenging circumstances of separation, especially from their children — providing them with a safe space to share their struggles, seek support, and build connections with others who understand their journey.

What sets this initiative apart is the fact that the entire team consists of peers – fathers who have walked the same path and intimately understand the complexities and emotions that accompany such circumstances.

Join us on Monday nights from 6pm to 8pm at our Geelong site for a supportive community of fathers who truly understand what you are going through. Don’t navigate separation alone.

MultiSkills collaborates closely with Geelong LLEN to host regular “Industry” and “Try a Trade” days where young people have the chance to visit our site, speak to trainers, and engage with the industry to gain a first-hand view of what life is like in the Construction Industry.

We have Civil Construction Awareness days where students get the opportunity to immerse themselves in these engaging ‘school to work’ sessions. They will:

  • Get hands-on with earthmoving machines and plant equipment
  • Gain insights from industry experts about the various roles on large-scale projects
  • Discover the essential first steps towards a successful career in this sector.

As a youth, don’t miss this chance to explore the construction industry up close, offering a practical glimpse into the day-to-day workings of the field and help you determine if this is the career path you want to pursue.

St. Joseph’s is an inclusive, supportive school for 12-25-year-olds seeking an alternative to mainstream education. MultiSkills has provided training options for many students from St. Joseph’s with the aim of securing sustained employment, particularly for those who are disengaged from the education system. MultiSkills has hosted “try” days where students can operate machinery, speak to trainers, and learn about the industry and their career options.

MultiSkills has been a longstanding supporter of Northern Futures, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to addressing disadvantage in Geelong’s northern suburbs by providing customised education and employment opportunities in partnership with industry, community, and government.

The team at MultiSkills has been actively involved in supporting young participants through training sessions and by attending meetings at the Northern Futures office to guide and inform them about career pathways, as well as assisting those with language and literacy challenges.

In the past, we have conducted presentations for groups at Cultura and assisted them in accessing training opportunities with the aim of securing long-term employment. Cultura offers a diverse range of programs to support newly arrived residents, individuals, and groups from multicultural backgrounds residing in the Greater Geelong and Barwon region.

Our support extends across all life stages, from services tailored for young families and homework clubs for schoolchildren to driver education and employment initiatives.
